    Corporate Policies ?

    After reading this you may think it should have been the joke section. The sad truth is all this is TRUE. I work for a BIG well known retailer. These are for real. If you try to detain a shoplifter, you will be fired on the spot. No questions asked. A while they took out the alarms at the...

    Thought my wife had died.

    My wife of over 46 years had Heart surgery yesterday. We were told it would take between 1 1/2 and 2 hours. I was to called when they were done. Just over an hour later, a lady told us the Doctor wanted to see us in a conference room. The only thing any of us could think of that something had...

    Windshield clearing and cleaning-old new or new tip?

    Needed to clean the inside of the Windshield. Could never get normal glass cleaners not to streak. Tried using windshield washer fluid and it worked better than anything else I've tried. The washer fluid with "De-icer" around here doesn't work for crap. Tried an old can of De-icer, no...

    Mushrooms and Dish Soap

    I had a bunch of mushrooms in my lawn. I knew if I just pulled them out or raked they out they would be back the next day. I checked the internet to find out what to do. SOO SIMPLE! Mix 3 tablespoons of Dish Soap in one gallon of water. With a large screw driver, poke holes all around and in...

    How to clean Laundry Tubs?

    I want to clean and paint my concrete Laundry Tubs. There is lots of kits on the market to refinish your Bath Tubs. I don't think the prep is the same. Has anyone done this? Can I just sand it and clean with a strong solvent and then paint it? As always, the budget is a issue. Thanks, Mike

    Talk about NOS

    A few days ago, I was cleaning out a little bit of the black hole.(AKA basement) I came across a 14" long Montgomery Ward paint stirring stick. Never been used. It has been buried for at 49 years. I have never shopped at Wards since I moved to Colo. in late 1969. All the Wards stores I...

    New trick or old news?

    I heard about this a couple of months ago. To remove paint from hinges and knobs when painting inside the house, put them in an OLD pan and just boil them for about 25 - 30 minutes. I just set the kitchen timer when the water is at a rolling boil and take it with me The paint comes off in large...

    It does what it claims.

    I tried Zep Commercial Power Tub & Tile Cleaner. It is the first product that REALLY does what it claims. My kitchen sink is double cast iron/ porcelain model that is about 70 years old. It did some stains that would just not come out even with bleach. My daughter told me about this Zep...

    Hats off to The Texas Roadhouse

    Kay and I went there for dinner last night. When we arrived, I saw two parking spaces next to the Handicapped that had a sign I had never seen before. They said Combat Wounded. In the center was a Purple Heart. This choked me up more than a little! I made a point of telling the Manager how...

    Workforce now days ? Is it just me ?

    IMO this is just another side of what is going on in this country today. Parents have not taught their kids manners, how to work, why and when to stay off the %m!" cell phones. Example: I had a young man(?) on one of my construction crews that asked if he was going to get a raise when his...

    Anyone a structural engineer?

    I did structural repairs to single family homes for a few years. Get a contractor that has experience in this type of repair. There is a lot more to doing it right than just laying some new block!!!

    Check Out This Video: "When Fuel Altereds Go Wrong"

    The best part of the whole thing is the driver got out and appeared to have no injuries!! I spent several seasons on the Fire Safety crew at an NHRA Drag Strip. Never liked anything like this.
